Here at Child’s World Academy child care, we know that getting out of the house in the morning can be a challenge and having to feed your child a healthy meal before you shoot out the door can be a task of Herculean proportions. And if Cheerios are boring your child and the thought of making a huge breakfast of eggs, pancakes, and fruit salad is untenable on weekday mornings, try a few of these healthy, easy breakfast ideas for toddlers and preschoolers.
